Voices In the Dark

The moon is shining bright above There's voices on the breeze I close my eyes and listen close To hear the talking trees Rustling leaves chant mystic words As crickets sonnet sing Treefrogs peep the warning of What tropic winds will bring The swaying limbs are dancing with The clouds that block the stars As night-time luminesence fades Venus joins with Mars Out there in the stratosphere Beyond what eyes can see We can only speculate The things that come to be But here on Earth we just rely On what we only know The caravans of weather men And doppler radar shows Trepedation breeds with fear As consternation grows Heart beats deep within my chest And worry starts to flow Thunder rolls and raindrops fall The wind begins to howl I worry what to do with me I have no type of cowl Trees bend right and trees bend left Commanded by the wind I pray for my forgiveness And I pray for all my sins Then just as quickly as it starts The storm recedes its gale Leaving me to quiver in My triumphs and my fails With that in mind and state of mind Which will be surmount? Will I rise or will I fall Or just stay round about? Rockman
